Chapter 235 is like a tiger
The day's work ended like this, and Liu Zhang got off work on time.
He also could not take the initiative to resign, after all, this was a technical adviser appointed by the emperor himself.
It's really tiring to work in the upper department, and the craftsmen in the Shang Fang department are also very shrewd.
They don't want to do things too much, and it's good to be able to keep their jobs.
As long as they can meet the minimum standards, they will be satisfied.
If you make something too good, you will come to the highest standards in the future.
Liu Zhang returned to his new mansion, and Chen calculated the time for him to return home.
Waiting outside the mansion gate, Xu Xuan has been teaching those Xiongnu women Chinese recently.
They also speak a few common phrases, but they don't speak them very fluently.
Yuwenman was the smartest among the Hun women he brought back, and he learned everything quickly.
It's just that he is sometimes sullen, and he is worried about Yu Wenkai.
He was also afraid of Liu Zhang, and he knew his current identity.
Yuwenman has been following Xu Mian for the past few days and learned that she is also a Huns.
Xu Mian became Liu Zhang's wife, and Yu Wenman was a little puzzled.
Why do you want to marry a nobleman of the Han Dynasty, don't you want to be in the Monan grassland.
Xu Mian expressed her reluctance to return to the grassland, she was accustomed to the comfortable life of the Han Dynasty.
Although there will be some troubles, it can basically be solved.
When I returned to the grassland, I didn't eat well, I didn't have warm clothes, and the living environment on the grassland was very bad.
Liu Zhang heard the two of them talking in Xiongnu, and he could understand it.
In the winter of the third year of Yuanshuo, many Xiongnu were frozen to death by the cold weather.
Many horses, cattle and sheep also froze to death, and it was not until the late spring and early summer of the following year that the grassland warmed up.
The Hun cavalry went to the border of the Han Dynasty to loot supplies, but were ambushed by the Han army.
As a result, the Huns suffered heavy losses and did not grab much.
The life of the Xiongnu nobles was barely passable, and even their clansmen had a lot of frostbite to death.
Coupled with the fact that they were attacked by the Han army every year, the population of the Xiongnu became smaller and smaller.
The annual population of the Xiongnu is not as good as the people who die for various reasons, and the life of the Xiongnu is getting more and more difficult day by day.
Yu Yumai couldn't help crying as she spoke, when would such days end.
When Xu Jian saw that Liu Zhang was back, she greeted him with a smile.
Yu Wenman is still a little puzzled, why is Xu Xuan so good to Liu Zhang?
Like herself, she was a captive of the Han Dynasty and became a slave of the Han nobles.
"It's been hard work today at the Shang Fang Office, in the afternoon. The princess of the pavilion sent someone to remind you to come to the banquet on time tomorrow. ”
Before the banquet, the other party will send someone to remind you.
In case the inviter forgets, it will be reminded once a day.
"I'll be on time tomorrow, and I'll take Yun'er with me. Due to your special status, I can't take you there. ”
Xu Jian is now staying with him as a maidservant, so he can't take her with him.
Xu Xuan smiled and said that he didn't care, and those people who went to the banquet of the Pavilion Chief Princess were noble.
If she went to participate as a handmaiden, it was not impossible.
This will let Liu Che know that Xu Xuan is not in Honghou Kingdom.
It might be a little troublesome, and Xu Xuan didn't care about attending the banquet.
Recently, the simulated robot replaced her to train those Han soldiers, and she couldn't use Xu Xuan's identity.
"How has Xiao Man been learning lately?"
Liu Zhang doesn't know how Yuwenman has studied recently? Of course, I hope she will get acquainted with life here as soon as possible.
was familiar with the rules of the Han Dynasty and kept her by his side because he wanted him to be Xu Xuan's companion.
"She's very smart and learns everything quickly, but she's just a little unhappy lately."
Xu Mian asked her, just missing Yuwenkai and them.
I wonder how they've been doing? She didn't dare to ask Liu Zhang for anything.
"You just said that Yuwenkai and they are doing well now, I told Wei Yan. Let him take care of Yuwenkai and them a little bit, and arrange easier work for them. ”
Liu Zhang did this, and he did it to the fullest.
But they can't be trained as guards, and they can't be allowed to join the army for the time being.
They are unruly, they only have the Huns in their hearts.
If you don't have complete control over them, don't let them form a team.
Don't let Zhao Xin's matter repeat the mistakes of the past, and take in other Huns in many places.
After two days, let Yu Wenkai write a letter to his sister to let them know about each other's situation.
This is already the greatest authority given to him, and it is absolutely impossible to take Yu Wenkai in.
He is even more difficult to tame than Lan Xuan, and it is very dangerous to stay by his side.
The Xiongnu women were different, they were a little tougher than the women of the Han Dynasty.
They are still relatively easy to tame, and these Hun women will be handed over to Xu Mian to manage.
Actually, it's not too much trouble, train them into a women's escort team.
"Looks like you're still a little scared of me. What do you think I'm scary? ”
Liu Zhang walked up to Yuwenman and told her in Xiongnu.
"You are a fierce tiger, my brother can't beat you. At that time, he said to me, he is a wolf, you are a tiger, and you beat him up very badly. ”
Yu Wenman replied cautiously, looking at Liu Zhang's pace in the past few days like a tiger.
All the women around him were in awe of him and listened to him.
In the past few days, Yuwenman is really obedient, and she is also afraid of being beaten.
She has seen those who were captured by the Xiongnu and enslaved by the Xiongnu nobles.
If they don't work well, they will be beaten, and the Hun nobles say that they are not even as good as dogs, cattle and sheep.
The nobles of the Han Dynasty treated some Xiongnu people with ferocity, which was as fierce as the Xiongnu nobles.
So every day, Yuwenman works seriously and studies seriously, just hoping to be beaten and scolded less.
Xu Mian is still very good to her, she eats well and dresses warmly every day.
Since she was brought back, Xu Mian gave her a few new sets of clothes.
I have also heard the story of Xu Xuan, who is also a Xiongnu nobleman who was arrested.
Xu Mian was used to life here, and she advised Yu Wenman not to run away.
This is the capital of the Han Dynasty, if you don't have a pass in your hand.
Even Chang'an City couldn't get out, let alone run back to the Xiongnu territory.
"You think I'm as fierce as a tiger, you think I'm going to eat you. Your brother is not afraid of me, and you can see that you are a smart girl. ”
Liu Zhang still talked to Yuwenman in Xiongnu, and the Chinese he spoke may not be understandable to her.
Yuwenman understood the meaning of these words, and the meaning of a girl in the Han Dynasty was a beauty.
"I think you're like a tiger, I'm telling the truth. In the future, if you fight the Huns, you will definitely win. ”
Intuition told her that Liu Zhang was a very fierce tiger.
If the Huns fight him in the future, they will definitely suffer a big loss.
"You're complimenting me. I am very happy. Don't be afraid, as long as you are obedient, you will not be beaten or scolded. ”
"I'll be obedient, and there are two nobles who are fierce tigers like you. One is surnamed Cao and the other is surnamed Li. ”
Liu Zhang understood what she meant when he heard her, that was Cao Xiang and Li Ling.
The two of them have personalities and styles of doing things, and they are indeed a bit like tigers.
"You're the best tiger, you're better than them."
Yuwenman is just a metaphor, and this is indeed a compliment to him.
A person's strength is likened to a fierce tiger.
The Huns compared themselves to steppe wolves or eagles, and Liu Zhang smiled happily.
I really wanted to gently stroke her little head, but doing so might scare her.
"Actually, you Huns are also very strong, maybe I will meet them in the future. You will witness my strength and live well. ”
Liu Zhang encouraged her to live well and not to think about running away.
Don't think about despising life, she will see the strength of the Han Dynasty with her own eyes.
She will be happier in the future, and let Xu Mian teach her Chinese well during this time.
In the future, we will use Chinese to avoid misunderstanding.
Most people could not understand the Xiongnu language, and they would think that Liu Zhang was secretly in contact with the Huns.
With bad intentions, they felt that Liu Zhang had behaved strangely recently.
There are a lot of Huns gathered around him, maybe these Huns are the meticulous work sent by the Huns.
Let them sinicize as soon as possible, it's good for them, it's good for Liu Zhang and his family.
Tomorrow, I will attend the banquet of the princess of the pavilion Tao, so I will take Yu Wenman over.
She will be able to meet with Yu Wenkai, and Wei Yan will take Yu Wenkai to the banquet.
Tomorrow there will be quite a few young nobles in attendance, and they will also bring their retinue.
"As long as you behave well, every once in a while, I'll let you meet him."
This is a special reward for Yuwenman, it depends on how well she performs.
Yuwenman heard that he was able to see his brother from time to time, and he was able to learn about his recent condition.
That's already good, she's going to do it well.
Recently, it is nothing more than learning Chinese, being able to write Chinese characters, and learning the etiquette of the Han Dynasty.
They entered the mansion, and the new mansion was also arranged according to Liu Zhang's requirements.
Some are original and not easy to do, such as rockeries and artificial lakes.
These do not affect life, and it will no longer cost time and money to get them.
Liu Zhang still felt comfortable living in the Red Marquis Kingdom, which made him feel very depressed.
I really don't understand why so many nobles are willing to live in Chang'an.
